Lupe Fiasco Didn’t Take His Grammy Snub Lightly

Entertainment

Grammy nominations were announced Monday (December 7) and among the nominees, Kendrick Lamar leads the pack with an impressive (and deserved) 11 nods including Album of The Year for his sophomore project, To Pimp A Butterfly.

And while most in the hip-hop community rejoiced over K.Dot’s success, Chicago native Lupe Fiasco couldn’t help but voice his angst with not receiving a nomination for his fifth studio album Tetsuo & Youth.

The 16-track LP, which Pitchfork described as Lupe’s ” dive back into rapping for its own sake like it’s a big dusty novel he’s been waiting to pick back up for years.” was more than deserving, of a Grammy nod, according Lupe.
